Travelling by bus is a great way to reduce the number of cars on the road and lower your personal carbon dioxide emissions.
Now Naked Bus is making it all the more appealing by offering one free ticket on every service in May and June 2010.
There are 2,500 tickets available, including some for Cook Straight ferry crossings and over 350 destinations to chose from.
Nakedbus.com managing director Hamish Nuttall says the company is doing its bit to reduce New Zealand's carbon footprint and raise awareness of global warming.
“Thirty percent of our customers previously used private motor vehicles before they logged onto nakedbus.com. This means that we have helped to avoid 57,000 kilometres of car travel per year,” says Nuttall.
Nuttall says that by moving customers away from private motor vehicles to his public transport system, nakedbus.com has made it possible for his passengers to reduce their carbon dioxide emissions by 177 tonnes per annum.
